wow you have been waiting since 2014 for a decision? Thats plain cruelty on HO part.ilruk84 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 06, 2019 1:07 pmDear Gurus,
Below is for my sister who will be eligible for 10 years ILR route in few months time and have some questions.
She came to UK in Sept 2009 on student visa which was issued for 2 years, in August 2011 she applied for PSW which was issued for 2 years and then in 2013 May she applied for TIER 1 Ent as team with my cousin brother, in Jan 2014 they received a letter from HO saying their case is complex and will take longer and after that no update from them.
In Sept 2017 my cousin varied his application to 10 year ILR route and updated HO that my sister will be only one for the Ent visa along with business account which joint account is now on her name and all funds are still there ie 50K his visa was refused but its a totally different case now but very brief his refusal was because he had 10 days gap in past in between his applications and is currently waiting for his JR review.
Now my sister will be completing her 10 years on Sept 16th and she is planning to apply for ILR before 28 days to completion now my questions are as everything is with HO (ie passport is now expired we have photocopy for it, her UK uni degree etc) how should be go on about varying her application ? Is there a template we can use to write cover letter to vary the application? All her application were on time and there has been no refusal on her past applications, anyone with similar kind of experience please do share here
Many Thanks
How immensely stressful! Your sister hasn’t travelled out side the UK since 2013 and is keeping to the terms of which visa type?ilruk84 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 06, 2019 1:07 pmDear Gurus,

Would be interesting to see what info HO holds by obtaining SAR.
As per my reading of LR route, date of visa issue, can be used as 10 year counting period.
Though I’ve never varied an application and this is just my opinion.. what is ur concern in writing up a cover letter urself? It would be a basic request to vary with pertinent info regarding previous application.. passports/visas photocopies used for the duration..basically covering the requirements for LR.. adding how she’s supporting herself financially for the past so many years..
As far as I know, when you fill out the online form it asks about any pending applications with HO and asks for the case reference numbers. So I am of the view once you apply LR, giving the previous case number will vary the application along with a cover letter.ilruk84 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 06, 2019 2:55 pmHiaman90 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 06, 2019 2:40 pmHow immensely stressful!

Thanks for your feedback.
She is still under PSW as per my knowledge until your case is decided you carry with your previous status
Yes are planning to apply for SAR soon
Not any concern just wanting to getting some wording for writing up letter and see how others have done it.
As per my reading 10 ILR only require lawfully residency only so I dont think we need to proof how she has been supporting herself financially?
Regards
Any thoughts on this anyone? Thanksilruk84 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 12:20 pmDear All,
Just quick update on my sister case, couple of weeks back she varied her application to ILR under 10 years rule as she has been here legally since 2009, now its wait game again not sure how long HO will take it but let see.
I have question if some senior member can answer it, as my sister has varied her application does she still need to keep £50,000 in her business account? Is there any chance HO can ask for the proof if she still has it as her lawyer is saying not to withdraw it until case is decided which I don't understand why as her application is changed now ? Just to add here that she has been holding this money since she applied for T1 Ent so she has all the bank statements to prove that money has been in the account.
Many Thanks
Exactly that was my question why she still need to keep 50k in her business account as we have now vary the application and his answers were not conceivable as he kept saying that it was just to be on safe side which I dont get it.
